Potential of Karimunjawa Island’s Plants as Antibiotic-Producing Endophytic Bacteria Sources
TLDR
Novel insight into the future production of novel antibiotics derived from plant-associated endophytic bacterial as a strategy for increasing the application of natural compounds to control plant diseases in agriculture is provided.
Biodegradation of two persistent aromatic compounds by using oil shale.
TLDR
The results suggest that oil shale is not only an adsorbent but has an active role in the degradation of pollutants by its natural microflora, and is a suitable candidate as an ameliorating agent, which can also be used in industrial size.
Alleviation of lead toxicity and phytostimulation in perennial ryegrass by the Pb-resistant fungus Trichoderma asperellum SD-5.
TLDR
It is demonstrated that Pb-resistant microorganisms can enhance Pb extraction from the soil, thus improving remediation and providing a scientific basis for the role of combined plant-microorganism methods in remediating P b-contaminated soil.
Ethnomedicinal and therapeutic values of Flacourtia jangomas
TLDR
